Getting Started: Translating via Translator role

You can translate the site via Translator role/view. The benefit of the translator view is that you can easily see the content that needs to be translated and it hides all other functionality to help you stay focused.

IMPORTANT: When you translate a language, this translation becomes available on other sites that use the same language.

If you are an admin you can switch to translator view by clicking on your profile in the top right corner and selecting 'Switch to Translator View'. If you have a translator role you will see the translator view by default.

Translator view:

The left column shows the content types that are available.

Note that as of July 2020, the 'Directors', 'Careers', 'Department', 'Career Location' do not have their content enabled on the English site.

This view also provides a snapshot of the status of translation and links to start translating.

Translating pages:

Click on Pages and click View next to the page you want to translate. In the expanded view click Create next to the language you want to translate. 

You will have to enter the translated title of the page and, if there is a menu link to that page, you will have to provide a translation for that menu item as well. The original English text is shown under the input box.

Click Continue and you will land in the editor to finish the translation.
